Just had a thought that if avatars are in space with the possibility of leaving the safety of the spacecraft, then spacesuits will be needed. The question is then will they be looted or crafted?
Imo we already got it, armors that uses helmets could work like spacesuits! So any Arkadia armor I have seen so far, calypso armor designs that looks like Nemesis, Vigi, Angel, Boar, Jag, Tiger etc.... It would be really cool if MA made a set bonus for whole armor sets like complete Vigi gives 5min space time, Nemesis(more total protection) 10 mins and the more protection, the higher space-oxygen time etc.
Or as equal we know we will can reach space with vtol with some attachment, they can create attachment for armor for turn in spacesuits.
Like in this video from MA, visual mockup for ESA? [video=youtube;ITUSDHLlBNs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITUSDHLlBNs[/video]
But when your ship is destroyed and you are launched to space is worst if you have a spacesuit. Pirate have more time for aim you well.
If we get to use spacesuits seems to me that laser weapons and rocket guns should work quite well in space. A couple well placed shots would make the pirate keep his distance and allow you time to dig out the weldwire and fix your ship.
